Search Hints

• Use QUOTATION MARKS if you are searching for a particular phrase or book title
• Use CAPs for boolean connectors (e.g. AND, OR, NOT)
• Use ADVANCED SEARCH for title, author or subject heading searches (works better than the basic search screen!)
• If you are getting a lot of irrelevant results, try taking off the EXPAND SEARCH WITH RELATED TERMS filter
• Locate books in other libraries by filtering results to LIBRARIES WORLDWIDE and requesting books via Interlibrary Loan
• See the handout below for some additional search tips
• See the WorldCat Discovery page for handouts describing additional features

Axinn Library provides access to many electronic books (eBooks).  When searching the catalog, you will see a link to the eBook.  You can view the content right on your computer screen but in most cases, it is easier to read the book from an eBook reader.  Most eBooks can be downloaded to an eBook reader such as IPad, Kindle, Nook, etc.  Click on the link above for instructions on downloading eBooks.
